"That's right, screwy guys." I said Stanford's All-America lull- j b.u k who icuirns tins fall to the job of bossing the Chicago Car dinals. "Kellows who play foot ball because they lo e the game, l'laycis who rcel in phvsical contai t. riayers who like to knock down and run over the j other fellow just for tbe fun of ' banging people around.'' I Nevers dreams of a 1939 Car- i dinal team with the fire and en- I thusmsm of the Cardinal teams i with which he played and which he coached 10 years ago. They were low in personnel and weight. They had 165-pounders like Herb Bloomer, who got a kick out of spilling lumbering gumis like l al Hubbard of Given Hav. They had little men like Gene Kose and Chuck CaseU, but how tho-e beys could pour it on. NrveiV need of a ti iple-lhre at may not he acute should Vern Huffman, obtained from Deuoit, Athletics Win 2 From Portland Eugene Beats Marine Electric, 16-1, 13-4 . Eugene's Athletics broke out in a base-hit rash at the dusty fair grounds Sunday afternoon. They murdered Marine Elec tric of Portland in both halves of a lopsided State league double header, 16 to 1 and 13 to 4. Both games were prize examples of baseball slaughter, pillage and ut ter devastation. The first massacre counted in the second half standings and en abled the A's to climb into a tie with tbe Electricians for seventh place. The nightcap went into the books as Eugene's third first half victory. Bob Wiltshire and Fete igoe each turned in flossy five-hit pit ching jobs, but the clay's real news centered around the Athletics mass batting rampage. The Murderers' Row The onre powerless A's hit and hit and then hit some more. To wit: Mr. William Carney continued his slugging spree by pounding out five straight hits at the start of the first game. He wound up with five for six in the opener, one for four in the second shift and a grand total of six blows, one a double, in 10 attempts. Mr. John Dunn rapped out four singles in five plate appearances in the first game, then picked up two more in the afterpiece, to fashion for himself a six-for-nine afternoon Mr. Burke "Clutch" Austin hammered out two singles and a long home run in the first bom bardment, then added a double and single in tbe nightcap to wind up with five for eight. Mr. Austin's home run was his second in as many Stale league contests. Mr. Lloyd Mallison poled out a home run and a triple in the first walkaway and a double and single in Ihe second gosh-awful massa cre, making four for nine. Everybody Smacks Apple Messrs. Carney, Dunn, Austin and Mattison were undisputably the big four in Eugene's "mur derers' row" and therefore were the only sluggers to earn the title of "Mister", but all the rest of the boys chipped in with base hits. Those who balled less than .300 for the four-hour session are in danger of being expelled from the league hy President Wilhelm, it is rumored. All credit for the abundance of base knocks may not, from a pan oramic point of view, be due lo Ihe Athletics. Even the most rabid "luok-at-'em-clout" supporter had to admit that Marine Electric didn't field much ot a ball club. And it seems entirely safe to venture that none of the Marine pitchers will be donning major league uniforms in the near future. Wiltshire would have achieved a shutout in the opener save for some none too clever fielding be hind him in the sixth inning. It didn't matter much, for the A's blasted out two runs in tbe first, two more in the fourth, six more in the fifth and a final six in the sevenlh. Aftermath Same Story Manager Jim Turner of the Electricians asked for quarter af ter the eighth had begun and. quar ter granted, he hastened to recon noiter his wounded forces for the second slaughter. In the closing installment of the perfect day lgoe not only dupli cated Wiltshire's five-hit feat but struck out seven. The Electricians grabbed a four-run lead in the fust and second innings, but Eugene blasted Pitcher Paddock tor four runs in the third and fin ished up with a great big nine in the fourth, on seven hits and six errors. reach his peak. This problem would become even less acute should Marshall Goldberg. Pitts burgh's dream back, elect to try the money pastime. The Cardinals are badly in need of ends. Gaynell Tinsley and Pill Smith comprise the available and expert wingmen now that Nevers has determined to restore Everett Etscher to the backfield. Nevers. widely experienced at both, hasn't yet made up his mind which job. collegiate or professional, involves the most headaches for a coach. While professionals know fun damentals ... or are presumed to . . . the coach has trouble molding individuals into a unit. Players are the product. of va rious systems, are set in their ways and must give up old hab its to work into the style their new coach insists upon. 0 ARROW SHIRTS The Mail's Shop BYROM & KNEELAND S3 E. 10 Hills Creek Loses 7-2 Verdict To Strong Bend Elks Sunday STATE W 1 Silverton 5 ( Bend 5 1 Toledo S : Albany A : Hills Creek 3 I Eugene 2 : Portland Babes . 1 I Marine Electric 1 .
